Today crews have been able to keep one lane open for each direction of traffic on First Avenue South at South King Street. The estimated time to reopen the entire street is now approximately 11 a.m. tomorrow, June 18.

Seattle Public Utilities crews continue to work on repairing a broken water main that closed the street to southbound traffic yesterday. Once their work is completed, SDOT crews will repave the street so that it can be reopened to traffic.
